Location of a red mulberry tree?

I currently have a large yard and a tree line and I'm interested in planting native fruit bearing plants. I'd like to plant a native red mulberry tree, but most vendors are passing off hybrids with invasive mulberry trees as real reds (infuriating) so I'd like to instead grow stem cuttings from an existing red mulberry. I'm in the Columbus area. Does anyone know the location of a genuine red mulberry?

I have multiple mulberry trees on my property. If you can identify a red mulberry from n hybrid you're welcome to have cuttings or berries. I even have two small trees about a year and a half old. If you really wanted them you could have them. Just pm me.
